How would you separate a mixture of small beads, sand, iron filings, salt, and water, using a magnet, filter funnel, filter paper, bunsen burner and a tripod with a bunsen burner?

I thought of Filtration, Evaporation, Distillation, Magnetism, and even Sieving but only 4 of them is right, please help.Which 4 of them is right?

A magnet removes the iron filings. Filter and the beads and sand stay in the filter paper. Salt and water go through. Dilstil and collect water; salt is left.

Dry the bead and sand, shake and the beads will rise to the top and they can be removed phically.

Explain why you will need to use each of the methods

Can I have steps

Or you can use a sieve to separate the sand and beads sepending upon the size of the beads. .

sieving,filtration,distillation and last but not least magnetism.

plz like thumbs up.

To check whether each of the method is magnetically or can all be filtration

They are made up of different properties,a method is a means of indication.

Yes, those are the correct methods that can be used to separate the mixture of small beads, sand, iron filings, salt, and water.

The steps involved in each method would be:

1. Magnetism - Use a magnet to attract and remove the iron filings from the mixture.

2. Filtration - Pour the mixture through a filter funnel with filter paper to separate the sand and beads from the salt and water. The sand and beads will stay on the filter paper while the salt and water pass through and can be collected in a separate container.

3. Distillation - Heat the saltwater mixture in a distillation apparatus. The water will evaporate and can be collected while the salt will be left behind.

4. Sieving - If the size of the beads is different from the size of the sand, this can be used to separate them. Simply pour the mixture through a sieve and the sand will remain while the smaller beads will pass through.

Each method is useful for separating different components of the mixture based on their properties. Magnetism is effective for separating iron or magnetic substances. Filtration works for separating insoluble solid substances from liquid. Distillation is used for separating mixture based on differences in boiling points. Sieving is useful when the components in the mixture have different sizes.

what will happen at the end?

answer plz

write a hypothesis for your investigation
